We want to ensure we are not jumping the gun. What baseline business stability or cash position do we need before we commit to your EOS implementation schedule?

Question

Tyler Smith · Accepted Answer

To get the most out of your engagement, your business must have a functioning core operation and enough financial runway to allow your leadership team to focus on the big picture. This is not a turnaround program for companies on the verge of insolvency. You need a dedicated leadership team of three to seven key people who are willing to be open, honest, and vulnerable. From a financial perspective, you should have stable cash flow that comfortably covers the cost of facilitation without causing daily anxiety.

If you are constantly fighting fires just to keep the lights on, you will not have the mental bandwidth to step back and work on the business. You must also have a clear desire to grow and a willingness to change how you operate. This means being ready to look in the mirror and make tough people decisions. Before our first session, you need to commit to freeing up your leadership team for full days of uninterrupted focus. If you cannot step away from the daily operations for one day every ninety days without the business collapsing, we need to address that bottleneck first.
